Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To examine the evolving landscape of cardiac surgery, focusing on the increasing complexity of patients and the role of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in managing perioperative low cardiac output syndrome (P-LCOS). RECENT FINDINGS P-LCOS is a significant predictor of mortality in cardiac surgery patients. Preoperative risk factors, such as cardiogenic shock and elevated lactate levels, can help identify those at higher risk. Proactive use of MCS, rather than reactive implementation after P-LCOS develops, may lead to improved outcomes by preventing severe organ hypoperfusion. The emerging concept of "protected cardiac surgery" emphasizes early identification of these high-risk patients and planned MCS utilization. Additionally, specific MCS strategies are being developed and refined for various cardiac conditions, including AMI-CS, valvular surgeries, and pulmonary thromboendarterectomy. SUMMARY This paper explores the shifting demographics and complexities in cardiac surgery patients. It emphasizes the importance of proactive, multidisciplinary approaches to identify high-risk patients and implement early MCS to prevent P-LCOS and improve outcomes. The concept of protected cardiac surgery, involving planned MCS use and shared decision-making, is highlighted. The paper also discusses MCS strategies tailored to specific cardiac procedures and the ethical considerations surrounding MCS implementation.

Abstract
The sensing of left ventricular (LV) activity is fundamental in the diagnosis and monitoring of cardiovascular health in high-risk patients after cardiac surgery to achieve better short- and long-term outcome. Conventional approaches rely on noninvasive measurements even if, in the latest years, invasive microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors have emerged as a valuable approach for precise and continuous monitoring of cardiac activity. The main challenges in designing cardiac MEMS sensors are represented by miniaturization, biocompatibility, and long-term stability. Here, we present a MEMS piezoresistive cardiac sensor capable of continuous monitoring of LV activity over time following epicardial implantation with a pericardial patch graft in adult minipigs. In acute and chronic scenarios, the sensor was able to compute heart rate with a root mean square error lower than 2 BPM. Early after up to 1 month of implantation, the device was able to record the heart activity during the most important phases of the cardiac cycle (systole and diastole peaks). The sensor signal waveform, in addition, closely reflected the typical waveforms of pressure signal obtained via intraventricular catheters, offering a safer alternative to heart catheterization. Furthermore, histological analysis of the LV implantation site following sensor retrieval revealed no evidence of myocardial fibrosis. Our results suggest that the epicardial LV implantation of an MEMS sensor is a suitable and reliable approach for direct continuous monitoring of cardiac activity. This work envisions the use of this sensor as a cardiac sensing device in closed-loop applications for patients undergoing heart surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Challenging separation from cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has been associated with multiple medical adversities, while its incidence, associated factors, and prognosis among cardiac surgery populations are substantially understudied. METHODS Adult cardiac surgical patients in two medical centers were retrospectively analyzed. Separation from CPB was stratified as easy, difficult, or complex, based on the use of pharmacologic assistance agents and mechanical supports. The various in-hospital adverse outcomes (e.g., mortality, common complications) were assessed. RESULTS The incidence of difficult and complex separation from CPB was 21.9% (1159 cases, 95% CI 20.8% to 23.1%), and 6.1% (320 cases, 95% CI 5.4% to 6.7%), respectively. High age, the presence of pulmonary hypertension or unstable angina, decreased ejection fraction, and emergency surgery were more frequently associated with challenging separation from CPB. Patients who experienced challenging separation from CPB had an elevated risk of adverse outcomes, including in-hospital mortality (complex: odds ratio [OR] 2.85), composite infection events (difficult: OR=1.82; complex: OR=1.88), major adverse cardiac events (difficult: OR=1.40; complex: OR=1.57), pulmonary complications (difficult: OR=1.31; complex: OR=1.20), acute kidney injury (difficult: OR=1.75; complex: OR=2.64), and prolonged postoperative hospital stays. CONCLUSIONS We depicted the incidence of challenging separation from CPB among cardiac surgery population. Additionally, results of influential factors and various adverse outcome analyses emphasize the potential of interventions aimed at preventing difficult or complex separation from CPB and reducing associated adverse outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the actions of amlodipine-folic acid (amlodipine-FA) preparation on hypertension and cardiovascular in renal hypertensive rats with hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy), so as to provide experimental basis for clinical research of amlodipine folic acid tablets. METHODS Rats model of renal hypertension with HHcy were established. The rats were randomly divided into groups of model, amlodipine, folic acid (FA) and amlodipine-FA of various dosages. Normal rats were used as normal control group. Blood pressure, Hcy as well as plasma NO, ET-1 and hemodynamics were assayed. Histological alterations of heart and abdominal aorta were also examined. RESULTS Compared with the normal group, blood pressure, plasma Hcy, and NO of the rats in model group were significantly increased, while the plasma ET-1 was decreased. Compared with the normal group, the animals in the model group had reduced cardiac function, thickened wall of the aorta and narrowed lumen. In FA group and amlodipine group, the rat plasma NO was increased while ET-1 was decreased, the protective effect of amlodipine-FA group on endothelial cells was further enhanced. In amlodipine group, the rat hemodynamics (LVSP, LVEDP and ±dp/dtmax, et al.) and vascular damage were significantly reduced, while in amlodipine-FA group, the heart function were further improved, and myocardial and vascular hypertrophy were significantly reduced. CONCLUSIONS As compared to amlodipine alone, amlodipine -FA can lower both blood pressure and plasma Hcy, significantly enhancing vascular endothelial function to protect the heart and blood vessel in renal hypertensive rats with HHcy.

Impact of left ventricular end-diastolic pressure as a marker for diastolic dysfunction on long-term outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement. Hellenic J Cardiol 2023:S1109-9666(23)00196-3. [PMID: 37944865 DOI: 10.1016/j.hjc.2023.10.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2023] [Revised: 10/03/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the proportion of elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) as an indicator of diastolic function after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and its implication in predicting long-term mortality. METHODS We analyzed retrospectively collected data on 3328 patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing TAVR in our institution between July 2009 and June 2021. Patients were stratified into two groups based on invasive post-procedural LVEDP measurements: normal (<15 mmHg) vs. elevated (≥15 mmHg) LVEDP. RESULTS Mean age of the patients was 81.6 years, and 53.3% were female. Elevated post-procedural LVEDP was identified in 2408 (72.3%) patients. The 5-year mortality rates were higher in the group with elevated LVEDP compared with the group with normal LVEDP (27.4% vs. 8.3%, p = 0.01; hazard ratio [HR] 1.22, 95% CI 1.05-1.41). A multivariate model revealed the following independent predictors of mortality after TAVR: post-procedural elevated LVEDP (HR 1.24, 95% CI 1.01-1.53), pre-procedural significant tricuspid regurgitation (HR 1.24, 95% CI 1.02-1.52) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) (HR 1.53, 95% CI 1.26-1.86). In the present study, a significant paravalvular leak after TAVR was not associated with higher mortality (HR 1.45, 95% CI-0.95-2.19, p = 0.75). CONCLUSION Elevated post-procedural LVEDP in patients who undergo TAVR is an independent predictor of all-cause mortality. Furthermore, PH and tricuspid regurgitation were also identified as predictors of mortality. These data confirm that diastolic dysfunction is an important predictor of mortality in TAVR and should be considered to guide procedure timing, favoring an early interventional approach and management in aortic stenosis patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Delays in the diagnosis and referral of aortic stenosis (AS) during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic may have affected the haemodynamic status of AS patients. We aimed to compare clinical and haemodynamic characteristics of severe AS patients referred for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) before the pandemic versus two subsequent periods. METHODS This study compared three 1‑year historical cohorts: a pre-COVID-19 group (PCOV), a 1st-year COVID-19 group (COV-Y1) and a 2nd-year COVID-19 group (COV-Y2). The main parameters were baseline New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP). Demographics, procedural characteristics and 30-day clinical outcomes were assessed. The transition time between heart team decision and TAVI was examined. Pairwise group comparisons were performed (PCOV vs COV-1Y and COV-1Y vs COV-2Y). RESULTS A total of 720 patients were included with 266, 249 and 205 patients in the PCOV, COV-Y1 and COV-Y2 groups, respectively. BAV was performed in 28 patients (4%). NYHA class did not differ across the cohorts. Compared to PCOV, LVEF was slightly lower in COV-Y1 (58% (49-60%) vs 57% (45-60%), p = 0.03); no difference was observed when comparing COV-Y1 and COV-Y2. LVEDP was higher in COV-Y1 than in PCOV (20 mm Hg (16-26 mm Hg) vs 17 mm Hg (13-24 mm Hg), p = 0.01). No difference was found when comparing LVEDP between COV-Y1 and COV-Y2. Thirty-day mortality did not differ between groups. Transition time was reduced in the COVID era. Duration of hospital stay declined over the study period. CONCLUSIONS Patients undergoing TAVI during the COVID-19 pandemic had more advanced AS illustrated by lower LVEF and higher LVEDP, but there were no differences in clinical outcome. The TAVI pathway became more efficient.

Abstract
Antenatal glucocorticoids accelerate fetal lung maturation and reduce mortality in preterm babies but can trigger adverse effects on the cardiovascular system. The mechanisms underlying off-target effects of the synthetic glucocorticoids mostly used, Dexamethasone (Dex) and Betamethasone (Beta), are unknown. We investigated effects of Dex and Beta on cardiovascular structure and function, and underlying molecular mechanism using the chicken embryo, an established model system to isolate effects of therapy on the developing heart and vasculature, independent of effects on the mother or placenta. Fertilized eggs were treated with Dex (0.1 mg kg-1 ), Beta (0.1 mg kg-1 ), or water vehicle (Control) on embryonic day 14 (E14, term = 21 days). At E19, biometry, cardiovascular function, stereological, and molecular analyses were determined. Both glucocorticoids promoted growth restriction, with Beta being more severe. Beta compared with Dex induced greater cardiac diastolic dysfunction and also impaired systolic function. While Dex triggered cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, Beta promoted a decrease in cardiomyocyte number. Molecular changes of Dex on the developing heart included oxidative stress, activation of p38, and cleaved caspase 3. In contrast, impaired GR downregulation, activation of p53, p16, and MKK3 coupled with CDK2 transcriptional repression linked the effects of Beta on cardiomyocyte senescence. Beta but not Dex impaired NO-dependent relaxation of peripheral resistance arteries. Beta diminished contractile responses to potassium and phenylephrine, but Dex enhanced peripheral constrictor reactivity to endothelin-1. We conclude that Dex and Beta have direct differential detrimental effects on the developing cardiovascular system.

Abstract
Objectives The objectives of this study were to examine left atrial (LA) function and compliance using two-dimensional (2D) strain analysis in adult patients with corrected Tetralogy of Fallot (c-ToF) and to investigate the relationships between LA function and patient characteristics, especially history of life-threatening arrhythmia (h-LTA). Methods Fifty-one c-ToF patients (34 males; age, 39 ± 15 years; h-LTA, n = 13) were included in this retrospective monocenter study. In addition to a 2D standard echocardiography examination, 2D strain analysis was performed to assess left ventricular (LV) and LA functions, including peak-positive LA strain (LAS-reservoir function) and LA compliance [defined as the ratio LAS/(E/Ea)]. Results Patients with h-LTA were older and exhibited a longer QRS duration. LV ejection fraction, LAS and LA compliance were significantly lower in the group of patients with h-LTA. Indexed LA and RA volumes, RV end-diastolic area was significantly higher and RV fractional area change significantly lower in the h-LTA group. LA compliance was the best echocardiographic predictor for h-LTA (AUC: 0.839; p < 0.001). Moderate inverted correlations were found between LA compliance and age and QRS duration. Among the echocardiographic parameters, LA compliance was moderately inversely correlated with RV end-diastolic area (r = -0.40, p = 0.01). Conclusion We documented abnormal LAS and LA compliance values in adult c-ToF patients. Further study is needed to determine how best to incorporate LA strain, particularly LA compliance, into multiparametric predictive models for LTA in c-ToF patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the impact of diastolic dysfunction (DD) on survival after routine cardiac surgery. DESIGN This was an observational study of consecutive cardiac surgeries from 2010 to 2021. SETTING At a single institution. PARTICIPANTS Patients undergoing isolated coronary, isolated valvular, and concomitant coronary and valvular surgery were included. Patients with a transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) longer than 6 months prior to their index surgery were excluded from the analysis. INTERVENTIONS Patients were categorized via preoperative TTE as having no DD, grade I DD, grade II DD, or grade III DD. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS A total of 8,682 patients undergoing a coronary and/or valvular surgery were identified, of whom 4,375 (50.4%) had no DD, 3,034 (34.9%) had grade I DD, 1,066 (12.3%) had grade II DD, and 207 (2.4%) had grade III DD. The median (IQR) time of the TTE prior to the index surgery was 6 (2-29) days. Operative mortality was 5.8% in the grade III DD group v 2.4% for grade II DD, 1.9% for grade I DD, and 2.1% for no DD (p = 0.001). Atrial fibrillation, prolonged mechanical ventilation (>24 hours), acute kidney injury, any packed red blood cell transfusion, reexploration for bleeding, and length of stay were higher in the grade III DD group compared to the rest of the cohort. The median follow-up was 4.0 (IQR: 1.7-6.5) years. Kaplan-Meier survival estimates were lower in the grade III DD group than in the rest of the cohort. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggested that DD may be associated with poor short-term and long-term outcomes.

Abstract
In patients undergoing aortic valve surgery, preoperative reduced left ventricular ejection fraction is not uncommon and is associated with poor outcomes. Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) may be preemptively used in patients presenting with high periprocedural risk. The Impella 5.5 is a percutaneous left ventricular assist device that has been increasingly used in various cardiac surgeries. In this article, we present a step-by-step guide, safeguards, and pitfalls on how to replace the aortic valve and preserve this transaortic MCS device for postoperative support in patients with concomitant aortic valve pathology and left ventricular dysfunction.

Identifying novel phenotypes of elevated left ventricular end diastolic pressure using hierarchical clustering of features derived from electromechanical waveform data. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:980625. [PMID: 36211581 PMCID: PMC9539436 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.980625] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2022] [Accepted: 08/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Elevated left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) is a consequence of compromised left ventricular compliance and an important measure of myocardial dysfunction. An algorithm was developed to predict elevated LVEDP utilizing electro-mechanical (EM) waveform features. We examined the hierarchical clustering of selected features developed from these EM waveforms in order to identify important patient subgroups and assess their possible prognostic significance. Materials and methods Patients presenting with cardiovascular symptoms (N = 396) underwent EM data collection and direct LVEDP measurement by left heart catheterization. LVEDP was classified as non-elevated ( ≤ 12 mmHg) or elevated (≥25 mmHg). The 30 most contributive features to the algorithm output were extracted from EM data and input to an unsupervised hierarchical clustering algorithm. The resultant dendrogram was divided into five clusters, and patient metadata overlaid. Results The cluster with highest LVEDP (cluster 1) was most dissimilar from the lowest LVEDP cluster (cluster 5) in both clustering and with respect to clinical characteristics. In contrast to the cluster demonstrating the highest percentage of elevated LVEDP patients, the lowest was predominantly non-elevated LVEDP, younger, lower BMI, and males with a higher rate of significant coronary artery disease (CAD). The next adjacent cluster (cluster 2) to that of the highest LVEDP (cluster 1) had the second lowest LVEDP of all clusters. Cluster 2 differed from Cluster 1 primarily based on features extracted from the electrical data, and those that quantified predictability and variability of the signal. There was a low predictability and high variability in the highest LVEDP cluster 1, and the opposite in adjacent cluster 2. Conclusion This analysis identified subgroups of patients with varying degrees of LVEDP elevation based on waveform features. An approach to stratify movement between clusters and possible progression of myocardial dysfunction may include changes in features that differentiate clusters; specifically, reductions in electrical signal predictability and increases in variability. Identification of phenotypes of myocardial dysfunction evidenced by elevated LVEDP and knowledge of factors promoting transition to clusters with higher levels of left ventricular filling pressures could permit early risk stratification and improve patient selection for novel therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The use of brain function monitoring with processed electroencephalography (pEEG) during cardiac surgery is gaining interest for the optimization of hypnotic agent delivery during the maintenance of anesthesia. The authors sought to determine whether the routine use of pEEG-guided anesthesia is associated with a reduction of hemodynamic instability during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) separation and subsequently reduces vasoactive and inotropic requirements in the intensive care unit. DESIGN This is a retrospective cohort study based on an existing database. SETTING A single cardiac surgical center. PARTICIPANTS Three hundred patients undergoing cardiac surgery, under CPB, between December 2013 and March 2020. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS One hundred and fifty patients had pEEG-guided anesthesia, and 150 patients did not have a pEEG-guided anesthesia. Multiple logistic regression demonstrated that pEEG-guided anesthesia was not associated with a successful CPB separation (p = 0.12). However, the use of pEEG-guided anesthesia reduced by 57% the odds of being in a higher category for vasoactive inotropic score compared to patients without pEEG (odds ratio = 0.43; 95% confidence interval: 0.26-0.73; p = 0.002). Duration of mechanical ventilation, fluid balance, and blood losses were also reduced in the pEEG anesthesia-guided group (p < 0.003), but there were no differences in organ dysfunction duration and mortality. CONCLUSION During cardiac surgery, pEEG-guided anesthesia allowed a reduction in the use of inotropic or vasoactive agents at arrival in the intensive care unit. However, it did not facilitate weaning from CPB compared to a group where pEEG was unavailable. A pEEG-guided anesthetic management could promote early vasopressor weaning after cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Background: Fluid resuscitation during Off-Pump Coronary Surgery (OPCABG) is still not protocolized and depends on multiple variables. We are exploring in this study whether a restrictive or euvolemic approach has any impact on short term surgical outcomes following OPCABG. Methods: It is a retrospective study of 300 patients analyzed based on the intraoperative fluid requirement with 150 patients in each group (Group I: Fluid <2 Litres, Group II: Fluid >2 Litres). Results: Multivariable analysis showed echocardiography variables such as E/e ratio, LA volume index, and atrial fibrillation (AF). LA volume index is related to the higher fluid requirement. Group II had significantly higher ventilation time (P < 0.05), drain output (P = 0.05), drain removal time (<0.05), inotropic requirement, and diuretic use. Conclusion: The requirement of the intraoperative fluid was associated with various factors including diastolic dysfunction (left atrial volume index, left ventricle mass index, E/e ratio) and preoperative dual antiplatelet use. Group II patients had longer ventilation time, diuretics use, high drain output, and required drains for a longer period of time. Although there was no statistical difference among two groups as far as postoperative AF concerned, a reversal of AF to sinus rhythm was delayed in group II patients.

Abstract
Diastolic dysfunction is associated with major adverse outcomes following cardiac surgery. We hypothesized that multisystem endpoints of morbidity would be higher in patients with diastolic dysfunction. A total of 142 patients undergoing cardiac surgical procedures with cardiopulmonary bypass were included in the study. Intraoperative assessments of diastolic function according to the 2016 American Society of Echocardiography and European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging guidelines using transesophageal echocardiography were performed. Cardiac Postoperative Morbidity Score (CPOMS) on days 3, 5, 8, and 15; length of stay in ICU and hospital; duration of intubation; incidence of new atrial fibrillation; 30-day major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events were recorded. Diastolic function was determinable in 96.7% of the dataset pre and poststernotomy assessment (n = 240). Diastolic dysfunction was present in 70.9% (n = 88) of measurements before sternotomy and 75% (n = 93) after sternal closure. Diastolic dysfunction at either stage was associated with greater CPOMS on D5 (p = 0.009) and D8 (p = 0.009), with CPOMS scores 1.24 (p = 0.01) higher than in patients with normal function. Diastolic dysfunction was also associated with longer durations of intubation (p = 0.001), ICU length of stay (p = 0.019), and new postoperative atrial fibrillation (p = 0.016, OR (95% CI) = 4.50 (1.22–25.17)). We were able to apply the updated ASE/EACVI guidelines and grade diastolic dysfunction in the majority of patients. Any grade of diastolic dysfunction was associated with greater all-cause morbidity, compared with patients with normal diastolic function.

Cardiac, biochemical and histopathological analysis reveals impaired heart function in hypertensive rats with apical periodontitis. Int Endod J 2021; 54:1581-1596.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the association between experimentally induced apical periodontitis (AP) and heart function in hypertensive rats. METHODOLOGY Forty-eight normotensive Wistar albino and spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rats were divided into four equal groups: control (C), normotensive with AP (AP), SHR and SHR with AP (SHR + AP). AP was induced on the first right mandibular molars by exposing the pulp chambers to the oral environment for four weeks and confirmed radiographically. Thereafter, the animals were sacrificed by cervical dislocation, whilst hearts were isolated and perfused according to the Langendorff technique gradually increasing coronary perfusion pressures 40-120 cmH2 O. The hemimandibles were analysed radiographically (mm2 and pixels) to verify the presence of AP. Biomarkers of cardiac oxidative stress (OS) were determined in coronary venous effluent and cardiac tissue homogenate. Cardiac tissue was analysed histopathologically for signs of heart damage (oedema, fibrosis and necrosis). All data were analysed by Kruskal-Wallis and one-way anova tests (p < .05). RESULTS The levels of the maximum left ventricular pressure development rate of the SHR + AP group were significantly increased compared to the AP and C groups, and of the SHR group compared with the C group (p < .05). The levels of the minimum left ventricular pressure development rate of the SHR + AP group were significantly decreased compared to the AP, SHR and C groups, and of the SHR group compared to the C group (p < .05). The radiographic AP area was significantly larger in the SHR + AP group than in the AP group (p < .01). The levels of superoxide anion were significantly higher in the SHR + AP group than in the AP, SHR and C groups (p < .05). The activities of superoxide dismutase in cardiac tissue homogenate were significantly lower in the SHR + AP and AP groups compared with the SHR and C groups (p < .05). CONCLUSIONS In rats, AP was associated with impaired cardiodynamics, disturbed cardiac OS, antioxidant defence and cardiac pathologic changes in hypertensive conditions. Hypertension was associated with an increase in the AP radiographic area. Further studies should confirm whether root canal treatment can have a cardioprotective effect and reduce cardiac OS in hypertensive conditions.

Predicting cardiac disease from interactions of simultaneously-acquired hemodynamic and cardiac signals. COMPUTER METHODS AND PROGRAMS IN BIOMEDICINE 2021; 202:105970.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Coronary artery disease (CAD) and heart failure are the most common cardiovascular diseases. Non-invasive diagnostic testing for CAD requires radiation, heart rate acceleration, and imaging infrastructure. Early detection of left ventricular dysfunction is critical in heart failure management, the best measure of which is an elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) that can only be measured using invasive cardiac catheterization. There exists a need for non-invasive, safe, and fast diagnostic testing for CAD and elevated LVEDP. This research employs nonlinear dynamics to assess for significant CAD and elevated LVEDP using non-invasively acquired photoplethysmographic (PPG) and three-dimensional orthogonal voltage gradient (OVG) signals. PPG (variations of the blood volume perfusing the tissue) and OVG (mechano-electrical activity of the heart) signals represent the dynamics of the cardiovascular system. METHODS PPG and OVG were simultaneously acquired from two cohorts, (i) symptomatic subjects that underwent invasive cardiac catheterization, the gold standard test (408 CAD positive with stenosis≥ 70% and 186 with LVEDP≥ 20 mmHg) and (ii) asymptomatic healthy controls (676). A set of Poincaré-based synchrony features were developed to characterize the interactions between the OVG and PPG signals. The extracted features were employed to train machine learning models for CAD and LVEDP. Five-fold cross-validation was used and the best model was selected based on the average area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) across 100 runs, then assessed using a hold-out test set. RESULTS The Elastic Net model developed on the synchrony features can effectively classify CAD positive subjects from healthy controls with an average validation AUC=0.90±0.03 and an AUC= 0.89 on the test set. The developed model for LVEDP can discriminate subjects with elevated LVEDP from healthy controls with an average validation AUC=0.89±0.03 and an AUC=0.89 on the test set. The feature contributions results showed that the selection of a proper registration point for Poincaré analysis is essential for the development of predictive models for different disease targets. CONCLUSIONS Nonlinear features from simultaneously-acquired signals used as inputs to machine learning can assess CAD and LVEDP safely and accurately with an easy-to-use, portable device, utilized at the point-of-care without radiation, contrast, or patient preparation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is very common among patients undergoing cardiac surgery and is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. The present study tested the hypothesis of whether left atrial strain (LAS) can be used as a single parameter to predict LVDD (per 2016 LVDD evaluation guidelines) and elevated left ventricular filling pressure (LVFP) (ie, LVDD grades II and III) in patients scheduled for off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) surgery. DESIGN A prospective observational study. SETTINGS Tertiary-care level hospital. PARTICIPANTS The study comprised 60 patients undergoing elective OPCABG. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Transthoracic echocardiography was performed within 24 hours of surgery by an anesthesiologist. LVDD was graded per American Society of Echocardiography/European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging recommendations for 2016 LVDD guidelines. Left atrial (LA) function was evaluated using two-dimensional strain measurements obtained with the speckle-tracking echocardiography technique. Receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed, and the area under the curve was derived for the prediction of elevated LVFP by LAS. Fourteen (23.3%) patients had elevated LVFP. Global LA reservoir strain (LASr) reduced significantly as the LVDD grade worsened (28.9% ± 8.3%, 21.8% ± 7.2%, 15.6% ± 4.5% and 11.9% ± 1.3%, respectively, for normal LV diastolic function and grades I, II, and III LVDD; p < 0.0001). Similar trends were noted for other components of LAS; namely, global LA conduction, global LA contraction strain, and LAS rate. The ability to predict high LVFP with LASr was statistically significant, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.92 (confidence interval 0.82-0.97; p < 0.001), and a Youden's index for LASr of 19% was obtained with 85.71% sensitivity and 84.78% specificity. The ability of LAS and its components to predict increased LVFP in various subpopulations (normal v reduced ejection fraction) yielded statistically significant results. CONCLUSIONS In patients scheduled for OPCABG, cardiac anesthesiologists successfully could measure LAS with speckle-tracking echocardiography in the preoperative period. LAS as a single parameter was significantly associated with the grade of LVDD. LASr decreased significantly with worsening grade of LVDD. Furthermore, an LASr value <19% significantly predicted a high LVFP, and LASr predicted high LVFP in both preserved and reduced ejection fraction equally well.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the changes in diastolic function and their association with cardiac biomarkers in the perioperative period in patients undergoing complex endovascular aortic repair. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Single-center academic hospital, central teaching hospital in Warsaw, Poland. PARTICIPANTS The study comprised 27 high-risk patients scheduled for elective endovascular repair of aortic aneurysm. INTERVENTIONS Complex endovascular procedure using branched endograft of the thoracoabdominal aorta. Branches of the stent grafts included renal arteries, the superior mesenteric artery, and the celiac trunk. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The primary outcome was to evaluate changes in diastolic function parameters assessed with transthoracic echocardiography at two and 24 hours postoperatively. The major secondary outcomes were changes in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and troponin I concentrations, systolic function parameters, hemodynamic parameters at two and 24 hours, length of hospital stay, and 30-day mortality. There was a reduction in e' wave velocity on both the septal and lateral sides at two hours compared with the baseline (p = 0.041 and p = 0.05, respectively). There was an increase in both NT-proBNP and troponin I concentrations after surgery (p = 0.002 and p = 0.034, respectively), with troponin I peaking two hours after surgery and NT-proBNP peaking 24 hours after surgery. CONCLUSIONS Patients undergoing a branched endovascular aortic repair of a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm experience a cardiac insult that manifests with deterioration in diastolic parameters and concomitant increases of troponin and NT-proBNP concentrations. Additional large-scale prospective studies are required to confirm this phenomenon.

Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Comprehensive Review and Update of Diagnosis, Pathophysiology, Treatment, and Perioperative Implications.

Abstract
Almost three-quarters of all heart failure patients who are older than 65 have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The proportion and hospitalization rate of patients with HFpEF are increasing steadily relative to patients in whom heart failure occurs as result of reduced ejection fraction. The predominance of the HFpEF phenotype most likely is explained by the prevalence of medical conditions associated with an aging population. A multitude of age-related, medical, and lifestyle risk factors for HFpEF have been identified as potential causes for the sustained low-grade proinflammatory state that accelerates disease progression. Profound left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic stiffening, elevated LV filling pressures, reduced arterial compliance, left atrial hypertension, pulmonary venous congestion, and microvascular dysfunction characterize HFpEF, but pulmonary arterial hypertension, right ventricular dilation and dysfunction, and atrial fibrillation also frequently occur. These cardiovascular features make patients with HFpEF exquisitely sensitive to the development of hypotension in response to acute declines in LV preload or afterload that may occur during or after surgery. With the exception of symptom mitigation, lifestyle modifications, and rigorous control of comorbid conditions, few long-term treatment options exist for these unfortunate individuals. Patients with HFpEF present for surgery on a regular basis, and anesthesiologists need to be familiar with this heterogeneous and complex clinical syndrome to provide successful care. In this article, the authors review the diagnosis, pathophysiology, and treatment of HFpEF and also discuss its perioperative implications.

Abstract
Antenatal glucocorticoid therapy reduces mortality in the preterm infant, but evidence suggests off-target adverse effects on the developing cardiovascular system. Whether deleterious effects are direct on the offspring or secondary to alterations in uteroplacental physiology is unclear. Here, we isolated direct effects of glucocorticoids using the chicken embryo, a model system in which the effects on the developing heart and circulation of therapy can be investigated, independent of effects on the mother and/or the placenta. Fertilized chicken eggs were incubated and divided randomly into control (C) or dexamethasone (Dex) treatment at day 14 out of the 21-day incubation period. Combining functional experiments at the isolated organ, cellular and molecular levels, embryos were then studied close to term. Chicken embryos exposed to dexamethasone were growth restricted and showed systolic and diastolic dysfunction, with an increase in cardiomyocyte volume but decreased cardiomyocyte nuclear density in the left ventricle. Underlying mechanisms included a premature switch from tissue accretion to differentiation, increased oxidative stress, and activated signaling of cellular senescence. These findings, therefore, demonstrate that dexamethasone treatment can have direct detrimental off-target effects on the cardiovascular system in the developing embryo, which are independent of effects on the mother and/or placenta.

Oxidative Stress Is Associated With Diastolic Dysfunction in Women With Ischemia With No Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease. J Am Heart Assoc 2020; 9:e015602.

Abstract
Background Women with signs and symptoms of ischemia and no obstructive coronary artery disease often have evidence of diastolic dysfunction. Oxidative stress (OS) is associated with cardiovascular risk factors and adverse outcomes. The relationship between systemic OS and diastolic dysfunction is unknown. Methods and Results A subgroup of women (n=75) with suspected ischemia and no obstructive coronary artery disease who had both cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and OS measurements were enrolled in the WISE-CVD (Women Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation-Coronary Vascular Dysfunction) study. Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure was measured invasively. Left ventricular end-diastolic volume and peak filling rate were assessed using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Aminothiol levels of plasma cystine and glutathione were measured as markers of OS. Spearman correlation and linear regression analyses were conducted. The group mean age was 54±11 years, and 61% had a resting left ventricular end-diastolic pressure >12 mm Hg. Cystine levels correlated negatively with the peak filling rate (r=-0.31, P=0.007) and positively with left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (r=0.25; P=0.038), indicating that increased OS was associated with diastolic dysfunction. After multivariate adjustment including multiple known risk factors for diastolic dysfunction and cardiovascular medications, cystine levels continued to be associated with peak filling rate (β=-0.27, P=0.049) and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (β=0.25; P=0.035). Glutathione levels were not associated with indices of diastolic function. Conclusions OS, measured by elevated levels of cystine, is associated with diastolic dysfunction in women with evidence of ischemia and no obstructive coronary artery disease, indicating the role of OS in patients with ischemia and no obstructive coronary artery disease. Its role in the progression of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction should be explored further.

Elevated left ventricular end diastolic pressure is associated with increased risk of contrast-induced acute kidney injury in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Int J Cardiol 2020; 306:196-202.

Abstract
AIMS To study the correlation between intra-procedural left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and the development of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS AND RESULTS A single center retrospective observational study compared clinical and hemodynamic characteristics of patients who developed post-PCI CI-AKI with those did not. CI-AKI was defined as an absolute increase in serum creatinine ≥0.5 mg/dl or an increase ≥25% from baseline 48-72 h after the administration of contrast medium. Among 1301 consecutive patients who underwent PCI, 125 patients (9.6%) developed CI-AKI. The CI-AKI group had a higher average LVEDP (18.4 ± 8.7 vs 14.4 ± 6.6 mm Hg; p < .0001) and higher prevalence of elevated LVEDP (≥20 mm Hg) than those without CI-AKI (47.2% vs 23.3%, p < .0001). After adjustments, elevated LVEDP remained independently associated with CI-AKI (OR 2.21; 95% CI 1.40-3.50). LVEDP predicted the development of CI-AKI with a receiver operating characteristic area under curve (AUC) of 0.64. The association between elevated LVEDP and the risk of CI-AKI was stronger in patients with reduced ejection fraction (EF ≤ 40%) (OR = 4.08; 95% CI: 1.68-9.91) than those with preserved EF (OR = 1.69; 95% CI: 0.94-3.04) (p value for interaction = .0003). Patients who had LVEDP ≥ 20 mm Hg and LVEF ≤ 40% had a post-PCI incidence rate of developing CI-AKI of 36.5%. CONCLUSIONS Elevated intra-procedural LVEDP (≥20 mm Hg) is independently associated with increased risk of CI-AKI for patients undergoing cardiac catheterization and PCI, especially in the setting of reduced LVEF (≤40%).

Abstract
Objectives: Off pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery is carried out as an alternative to conventional coronary artery bypass grafting using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). At times ‘conversion’ to CPB may be required to bail out a situation resulting from acute decompensation of the heart. It is reported that such conversion carries significant mortality risk. Since we conduct coronary revascularization by OPCAB technique as the preferred technique, we conducted this study with an aim to identify the markers of adverse outcome during conversion in Indian patients. Design: Case control retrospective study. Setting: Tertiary referral center. Participants: We conducted three thousand two hundred OPAB surgeries in the period between 2013 to16. Ninety patients (3.1%) required conversion to complete the revascularization (Con version group). Twice the number of patients who underwent OPCAB surgery without conver sion were chosen as controls (Control group). Intervention: OPCAB surgery Results: Mortality in the conversion group was 5.56% in contrast to 0.06% in the controls (P = 0.01). The conversion group had higher left ventricular end diastolic pressure, incidence of endarterectomy, and intra-aortic balloon counter pulsation requirement. Female gender was also predictive of conversion. The total chest drain, duration of ventilation, ICU stay and hospital stay were also higher in the conversion group. Conversion was associated with 9.47 times the odds for mortality. Conclusion: Conversion during OPCAB is associated with significantly increased mortality. Female gender, increased left ventricular end diastolic pressure and preoperative requirement of Intra-aortic balloon are markers of increased risk of mortality when converted.

Impact of left-ventricular end-diastolic pressure as a predictor of periprocedural hemodynamic deterioration in patients undergoing Impella supported high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions. IJC HEART & VASCULATURE 2020; 26:100445.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An increasing number of high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) are performed with mechanical circulatory support (MCS) to minimize the risk of periprocedural hemodynamic compromise. Prior studies have demonstrated that an elevated left-ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) is associated with worse outcome after acute myocardial infarction or cardiac surgery. Although LVEDP is frequently measured, little is known about the usefulness for predicting periprocedural hemodynamic deterioration in high-risk PCI. The objective of this study is to assess the impact of preprocedural measured LVEDP in non-shock patients undergoing high-risk PCI with MCS on periprocedural hemodynamic deterioration. METHODS AND RESULTS We reviewed the PCI protocol and the Automated Impella Controller in a consecutive series of 64 patients (mean age 73 years, 80% male), who underwent high-risk PCI with Impella MCS (period 01/2017-12/2018). LVEDP (17 ± 8 mm Hg) was measured in all cases before Impella insertion and start of PCI. Periprocedural hemodynamic deterioration was defined as: systolic blood pressure (SBP) drop (decrease ≥20 mm Hg or ≤90 mm Hg), or transient loss of arterial pressure pulsatility. Hemodynamic deterioration occurred in 33% (n = 21) of all patients but did not lead to a hemodynamic compromise due to the Impella support. Regression analysis of LVEDP for periprocedural hemodynamic deterioration or in-hospital major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) showed no significant results. CONCLUSION LVEDP was not associated with periprocedural hemodynamic deterioration or a higher rate of in-hospital MACCE. Our data propose that LVEDP may not be used as a risk stratification variable for MCS usage in non-shock patients undergoing high-risk PCI.

Abstract
This study aimed to assess the impact of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) vs. moderate-intensity continuous training (MIT) on cardiodynamic parameters in isolated rat heart. Wistar albino rats were randomly assigned to groups according to running protocol: sedentary control, MIT, and HIIT; spontaneous hypertensive rat (SHR) sedentary control, SHR + MIT, and SHR + HIIT. HIIT groups performed the running in 5 sprints × 45-55 m/min for 30-90 s, with 2 min of rest after each sprint, while MIT groups performed the running of 10-15 m/min for 1 h with 3 min of rest every 100 m; both protocols were implemented 5 days/week over 4 weeks with 1 week of adaptation before protocols started. Isolated rat hearts were perfused according to Langendorff technique at gradually increased coronary perfusion pressures (40-120 cmH2O). Using a sensor placed in the left ventricle, we registered maximum and minimum rate of pressure development in the left ventricle, systolic and diastolic left ventricular pressure, and heart rate. Coronary flow was measured flowmetrically. MIT was connected with cardiac depression in normotensive conditions, while HIIT leads to cardiac depression in hypertensive rats. HIIT induced more significant increase of contractile and relaxation parameters of the isolated rat heart, especially in hypertensive animals.

Abstract
Integrating functional and molecular levels, we investigated the effects of maternal treatment with a xanthine oxidase inhibitor on the programming of cardiac dysfunction in adult offspring using an established rat model of hypoxic pregnancy. Female Wistar rats were divided into normoxic or hypoxic (13% O2) pregnancy±maternal allopurinol treatment (30 mg kg-1 d-1). At 4 months, hearts were isolated from 1 male per litter per outcome variable to determine cardiac function and responses to ischemia-reperfusion in a Langendorff preparation. Sympathetic dominance, perfusate CK (creatine kinase) and LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) and the cardiac protein expression of the β1-adrenergic receptor, the M2 Ach receptor (muscarinic type-2 acetylcholine receptor), and the SERCA2a (sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase 2a) were determined. Relative to controls, offspring from hypoxic pregnancy showed elevated left ventricular end diastolic pressure (+34.7%), enhanced contractility (dP/dtmax, +41.6%), reduced coronary flow rate (-21%) and an impaired recovery to ischemia-reperfusion (left ventricular diastolic pressure, area under the curve recovery -19.1%; all P<0.05). Increased sympathetic reactivity (heart rate, +755.5%; left ventricular diastolic pressure, +418.9%) contributed to the enhanced myocardial contractility ( P<0.05). Perfusate CK (+431%) and LDH (+251.3%) and the cardiac expression of SERCA2a (+71.4%) were also elevated ( P<0.05), further linking molecular markers of cardiac stress and injury to dysfunction. Maternal allopurinol restored all functional and molecular indices of cardiac pathology. The data support a link between xanthine oxidase-derived oxidative stress in hypoxic pregnancy and cardiac dysfunction in the adult offspring, providing a target for early intervention in the developmental programming of heart disease.

Abstract
Background Diastolic dysfunction (DD) identified on echocardiography predicts mortality after cardiac surgery, however the most useful diastolic parameters for assessment and the association of DD with prolonged mechanical ventilation, ICU re-admission, and hospital length of stay are not established. Methods We included patients that underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), aortic valve replacement (AVR) or a combined procedure (CAB-AVR) from 2010 to 2016, and who had preoperative transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) at our institution within 6 months of the operation. Diastolic function was graded using the transmitral E and A waves and the septal tissue Doppler velocity. We performed logistic regression to assess the association of grade of DD with a composite endpoint of death, prolonged mechanical ventilation, ICU readmission during hospitalization, and hospital length of stay longer than 14 days. Results Between 2010 and 2016, 577 patients were eligible for inclusion. DD was common, with 42% of the cohort manifesting grade II or grade III DD. Rates of death and prolonged ventilation increased across grades of DD and across quartiles of increasing LV filling pressure, assessed by the E/e’ ratio. Adjusting for age, sex, procedure, systolic and diastolic function, both systolic (odds ratio 0.68 95% CI 0.55–0.85 per inter-quartile increase in LVEF) and diastolic function (odds ratio 1.31 95% CI 1.04–1.66 per increasing DD grade) both independently predicted outcome. Conclusion Diastolic dysfunction is common among patients undergoing cardiac surgery and is associated with death, prolonged mechanical ventilation, and prolonged hospital and ICU length of stay independent of systolic dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The ratio of the early transmitral flow velocity to early diastolic velocity of the mitral annulus (E/e') is an echocardiographic index of mean left ventricular (LV) filling pressure. We investigated the association between the preoperative E/e' ratio and postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) during off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery (OPCAB).Methods and Results:We reviewed 585 patients who underwent OPCAB and with preserved LV ejection fraction determined by preoperative echocardiography. AKI was determined by the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed. E/e' was also analyzed as 3 categories (E/e' <8, 8≤E/e'≤15, and E/e' >15) and as a continuous variable. A propensity score analysis was used to match the patients with E/e' >15 and E/e' ≤15. A preoperative E/e' >15 was an independent predictor for AKI (odds ratio 3.01, 95% confidence interval 1.40-6.17). E/e' >15 was also an independent predictor for AKI when E/e' was analyzed with 3 categories or as a continuous variable. In the matched sample, the incidence of AKI and 1-year mortality was significantly higher in patients with E/e' >15. CONCLUSIONS Among patients undergoing OPCAB with preserved LV systolic function, a preoperative E/e' ratio >15 was an independent predictor of postoperative AKI. Measurement of the preoperative E/e' ratio may help to assess the risk of postoperative AKI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite increased secondary cardiovascular events in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM), the expression of innate cardiac protective molecules in the hearts of patients with ICM is incompletely characterized. Therefore, we used a nonbiased RNAseq approach to determine whether differences in cardiac protective molecules occur with ICM. METHODS AND RESULTS RNAseq analysis of human control and ICM left ventricular samples demonstrated a significant decrease in KCNJ11 expression with ICM. KCNJ11 encodes the Kir6.2 subunit of the cardioprotective KATP channel. Using wild-type mice and kcnj11-deficient (kcnj11-null) mice, we examined the effect of kcnj11 expression on cardiac function during ischemia-reperfusion injury. Reactive oxygen species generation increased in kcnj11-null hearts above that found in wild-type mice hearts after ischemia-reperfusion injury. Continuous left ventricular pressure measurement during ischemia and reperfusion demonstrated a more compromised diastolic function in kcnj11-null compared with wild-type mice during reperfusion. Analysis of key calcium-regulating proteins revealed significant differences in kcnj11-null mice. Despite impaired relaxation, kcnj11-null hearts increased phospholamban Ser16 phosphorylation, a modification that results in the dissociation of phospholamban from sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+, thereby increasing sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-mediated calcium reuptake. However, kcnj11-null mice also had increased 3-nitrotyrosine modification of the sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, a modification that irreversibly impairs sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ function, thereby contributing to diastolic dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS KCNJ11 expression is decreased in human ICM. Lack of kcnj11 expression increases peroxynitrite-mediated modification of the key calcium-handling protein sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase after myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, contributing to impaired diastolic function. These data suggest a mechanism for ischemia-induced diastolic dysfunction in patients with ICM.

Abstract
Aims: The ATP-binding cassette (ABC)G2 transporter protects the heart from pressure overload-induced ventricular dysfunction but also protects cancer cells from chemotherapeutic agents. It is upregulated in the myocardium of heart failure patients and clears hypoxia-induced intracellular metabolites. This study employs ABCG2 knockout (KO) mice to elucidate the relevance of ABCG2 for cardiac and pulmonary vascular structure and function in chronic hypoxia, and uses human primary cardiac fibroblasts to investigate the potential role of ABCG2 in cardiac fibrosis. Methods and results: ABCG2 KO and control mice (n = 10) were subjected to 4 weeks normoxia or hypoxia. This allowed for investigation of the interaction between genotype and hypoxia (GxH). In hypoxia, KO mice showed pronounced right (RV) and left (LV) ventricular diastolic dysfunction. Compared to normoxia, end-diastolic pressure (EDP) was increased in control vs. KO mice by +1.1 ± 0.3 mmHg vs. +4.8 ± 0.3 mmHg, p for GxH < 0.001 (RV) and +3.9 ± 0.5 mmHg vs. +11.5 ± 1.6 mmHg, p for GxH = 0.110 (LV). The same applied for myocardial fibrosis with +0.3 ± 0.1% vs. 1.3 ± 0.2%, p for GxH = 0.036 (RV) and +0.06 ± 0.03% vs. +0.36 ± 0.08%, p for GxH = 0.002 (LV), whereas systolic function and capillary density was unaffected. ABCG2 deficiency did not influence hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension or vascular remodeling. In line with these observations, human cardiac fibroblasts showed increased collagen production upon ABCG2 silencing in hypoxia (p for GxH = 0.04). Conclusion: Here we provide evidence for the first time that ABCG2 membrane transporter can play a crucial role in ventricular dysfunction and fibrosis in hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension.

Abstract
Anesthesiologists frequently see asymptomatic patients with diastolic dysfunction or heart failure for various surgeries. These patients typically show normal systolic function but abnormal diastolic parameters in their preoperative echocardiographic evaluations. The symptoms that are sometimes seen are similar to those of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Patients with diastolic dysfunction, and even with diastolic heart failure, have the potential to develop a hypertensive crisis or pulmonary congestion. Thus, in addition to conventional perioperative risk quantification, it may be important to consider the results of diastolic assessment for predicting the postoperative outcome and making better decisions. If anesthesiologists see female patients older than 70 years of age who have hypertension, diabetes, chronic renal disease, recent weight gain, or exercise intolerance, they should focus on the patient's diastologic echocardiography indicators such as left atrial enlargement or left ventricular hypertrophy. In addition, there is a need for perioperative strategies to mitigate diastolic dysfunction-related morbidity. Specifically, hypertension should be controlled, keeping pulse pressure below diastolic blood pressure, maintaining a sinus rhythm and normovolemia, and avoiding tachycardia and myocardial ischemia. There is no need to classify these diastolic dysfunction, but it is important to manage this condition to avoid worsening outcomes.

Abstract
Objective Although numerous studies have shown the protective effects of the well-developed coronary collaterals on left ventricular functions, the relationship between collateral grade and left ventricular end diastolic pressure has not been studied in chronic total occlusion patients. Also, there are conflicting data on the effect of collaterals on NT-proBNP levels. The aim of our study was to evaluate the relationship between coronary collateral circulation and left ventricular end diastolic pressure and NT-proBNP levels in chronic total occlusion patients. Methods Study group was retrospectively selected from the patients who had undergone coronary angiography at our hospital between June 2011 and March 2013. Clinical, biochemical, angiographic and hemodynamic data of 199 consecutive patients having at least one totally occluded major epicardial coronary artery were evaluated. Coronary collateral circulation was graded according to Rentrop classification. While Rentrop grade 3 was defined as well-developed, all the remaining collateral grades were regarded as poor collaterals. Results Overall 87 patients were found to have good collaterals and 112 patients had poor collaterals. There was no significant difference between the patients with well- or poorly developed coronary collaterals with regard to left ventricular end diastolic pressure (16.84 ± 5.40 mmHg vs 16.10 ± 6.09, respectively, p = 0,632) and log NT-proBNP (2.46 ± 0.58 vs 2.59 ± 0.76, respectively, p = 0,335). Conclusion In patients with coronary chronic total occlusion even well-developed coronary collaterals are not capable of protecting the rise of left ventricular end diastolic pressure and NT-proBNP levels which are reliable markers of the left ventricular dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Women with chest pain and no obstructive coronary artery disease often have coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD), diagnosed by invasive coronary reactivity testing (CRT). The relationship between CMD and diastolic function measured by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is not well described. METHODS 41 women with suspected CMD underwent CRT and CMR. Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), coronary flow reserve (CFR) and coronary blood flow (CBF) were measured invasively. Resting CMR of these women and 20 reference controls was assessed for LV mass, septal wall thickness, ejection fraction (LVEF), end-diastolic volume (EDV), peak filling rate (PFR) and time-to-peak-filling rate (tPFR). Pearson correlations and linear regression models were made. RESULTS Mean age was 55±9, all had LVEF≥50%, and 16/41 (40%) had LVEDP>15mmHg. CMD (CFR<2.5 or CBF<50%) was present in 34/41 (83%) women. tPFR (mean 178±110ms) and PFR (mean 3.2±0.64 EDV/s) were not significantly different in women with or without CMD. tPFR increased with age (r=0.37, p=0.017) and septal wall thickness (r=0.47, p=0.002), while PFR decreased with age (r=-0.45, p=0.003). There was an inverse relationship between CFR and tPFR (r=-0.3, p=0.058). Increasing mass was associated with decreasing CBF (p=0.02). Compared to controls, cases had lower LVEF (p=0.049) and lower EDV (p=0.0002). CONCLUSION In women with signs and symptoms of ischemia but no obstructive coronary artery disease, CMD and elevated LVEDP are prevalent. While non-endothelial dependent CMD may be related to diastolic dysfunction, further investigation is needed regarding links between CMD, diastolic dysfunction and the development of heart failure with preserved LVEF.

Remifentanil Preconditioning Reduces Postischemic Myocardial Infarction and Improves Left Ventricular Performance via Activation of the Janus Activated Kinase-2/Signal Transducers and Activators of Transcription-3 Signal Pathway and Subsequent Inhibition of Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3β in Rats.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Remifentanil preconditioning attenuates myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury, but the underlying mechanism is incompletely understood. The Janus activated kinase-2 (JAK2)/signal transducers and activators of transcription-3 (STAT3) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathways are critical in both ischemic and pharmacologic preconditioning cardioprotection, which involve the inactivation of glycogen synthase kinase-3β. We hypothesized that remifentanil preconditioning confers cardioprotection via the JAK2/STAT3 and/or PI3K/Akt activation-mediated glycogen synthase kinase-3β inhibition. DESIGN Pharmacologic intervention. SETTING Research laboratory. SUBJECTS Male Sprague-Dawley rats. INTERVENTIONS In vivo and in vitro treatments. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Male Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 6 per group) were sham operated or subjected to myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury. The JAK2 inhibitor AG490 (3 mg/kg), the PI3K inhibitor wortmannin (15 μg/kg), or the glycogen synthase kinase-3β inhibitor SB216763 (600 μg/kg) were given before inducing in vivo myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury achieved by occluding coronary artery for 30 minutes followed by 120 minutes of reperfusion in the absence or presence of remifentanil preconditioning (6 μg/kg/min). Also, isolated rat hearts were Langendorff perfused and subjected to 30 minutes of global ischemia and 120 minutes of reperfusion without or with remifentanil preconditioning (100 ng/mL) in the presence or absence of AG490 and/or SB216763. Isolated rat cardiomyocytes and H9C2 cells were subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation alone or in combination with AG490 (100 μM), wortmannin (100 nM), or SB216763 (3 μM) without or with remifentanil preconditioning (2.5 μM). Remifentanil preconditioning reduced postischemic myocardial infarction and hemodynamic dysfunction induced by myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury concomitant with increased phosphorylation of STAT3 at tyr-705 (p-STAT3) and glycogen synthase kinase-3β but not Akt. AG490 but not wortmannin cancelled remifentanil preconditioning cardioprotection, and SB216763 restored it despite the presence of AG490. In Langendorff-perfused hearts, AG490-mediated cancellation of remifentanil preconditioning cardioprotection in attenuating postischemic myocardial infarction and creatinine kinase-MB release was reverted by concomitant administration of SB216763. Remifentanil preconditioning also attenuated posthypoxic cardiomyocyte injury and increased p-STAT3 and glycogen synthase kinase-3β in isolated primary cardiomyocytes and H9C2 cells. STAT3 gene knockdown with specific synthetic RNA cancelled remifentanil preconditioning cardioprotection, whereas glycogen synthase kinase-3β gene knockdown, which per se did not affect STAT3 under hypoxia/reoxygenation condition, preserved remifentanil preconditioning cardioprotection regardless of STAT3 abrogation. CONCLUSIONS Remifentanil preconditioning confers cardioprotection primarily via activation of JAK2/STAT3 signaling that can function independent of PI3K/Akt activation. Glycogen synthase kinase-3β is a critical downstream effector of remifentanil preconditioning cardioprotection.

Perioperative Diastolic Dysfunction in Patients Undergoing Noncardiac Surgery Is an Independent Risk Factor for Cardiovascular Events. Anesthesiology 2016; 125:72-91.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The prognostic value of perioperative diastolic dysfunction (PDD) in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery remains uncertain, and the current guidelines do not recognize PDD as a perioperative risk factor. This systematic review aimed to investigate whether existing evidence supports PDD as an independent predictor of adverse events after noncardiac surgery.
Methods
Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, and Google search engine were searched for English-language citations in April 2015 investigating PDD as a risk factor for perioperative adverse events in adult patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. Two reviewers independently assessed the study risk of bias. Extracted data were verified. Random-effects model was used for meta-analysis, and reviewers’ certainty was graded.
Results
Seventeen studies met eligibility criteria; however, 13 contributed to evidence synthesis. The entire body of evidence addressing the research question was based on a total of 3,876 patients. PDD was significantly associated with pulmonary edema/congestive heart failure (odds ratio [OR], 3.90; 95% CI, 2.23 to 6.83; 3 studies; 996 patients), myocardial infarction (OR, 1.74; 95% CI, 1.14 to 2.67; 3 studies; 717 patients), and the composite outcome of major adverse cardiovascular events (OR, 2.03; 95% CI, 1.24 to 3.32; 4 studies; 1,814 patients). Evidence addressing other outcomes had low statistical power, but higher long-term cardiovascular mortality was observed in patients undergoing open vascular repair (OR, 3.00; 95% CI, 1.50 to 6.00). Reviewers’ overall certainty of the evidence was moderate.
Conclusion
Evidence of moderate certainty indicates that PDD is an independent risk factor for adverse cardiovascular outcomes after noncardiac surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between valvular resistance and stroke volume (SV) and to assess SV adequacy to afterload in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) and normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). METHODS We assessed clinical characteristics and echocardiographic parameters in 44 patients with isolated severe AS and preserved LVEF. LV end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and LV mean diastolic pressure (LVMDP) were measured by cardiac catheterization. SV values were plotted in relation to valvular resistance. Patients were divided into 2 groups, with an SV that was higher (group 1) or lower (group 2) than the SV calculated by a regression equation using valvular resistance as the dependent variable. RESULTS At the same degree of valvular stenosis, the patients in group 1 exhibited better contractility as assessed by global longitudinal strain (p < 0.05), higher peak (p < 0.01) and mean gradient (p < 0.05), indexed SV (p < 0.001) and transvalvular flow (p = 0.01) than the patients in group 2, who had a higher heart rate (HR, p < 0.05), shorter ejection time (ET, p < 0.05) and more elevated LVEDP (p < 0.05) and LVMDP (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The presence of inappropriately decreased SV relative to afterload in patients with severe AS and normal LVEF was associated with lower contractility, higher HR, shorter ET and elevated LV diastolic pressure, which suggest failed hemodynamic adaptation to afterload.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Left atrial pressure and its surrogate, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), are important for determining diastolic function. The role of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in assessing diastolic function is well established in awake subjects. The objective was to assess the accuracy of predicting PCWP by TTE and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) during coronary artery surgery. METHODS In 27 adult patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery surgery, simultaneous echocardiographic and hemodynamic measurements were obtained immediately before anesthesia (TTE), after anesthesia and mechanical ventilation (TTE and TEE), during conduit harvest (TEE), and after separation from cardiopulmonary bypass (TEE). RESULTS Twenty patients had an ejection fraction (EF) of 0.5 or greater. With the exception of E/e' and S/D ratios, echocardiographic values changed over the echocardiographic studies. In patients with low EF, E velocity, deceleration time, pulmonary vein D, S/D, and E/e' ratios correlated well with PCWP before anesthesia. After induction of anesthesia using TTE or TEE, correlations were poor. In normal EF patients, correlations were poor for both TEE and TTE at all five stages. The sensitivity and specificity of echocardiographic values were not high enough to predict raised PCWP except for a fixed curve pattern of interatrial septum (area under the curve 0.89 for PCWP ≥ 17, and 0.98 for ≥ 18 mmHg) and S/D less than 1 (area under the curve 0.74 for PCWP ≥ 17, and 0.78 for ≥ 18 mmHg). CONCLUSION Doppler assessment of PCWP was neither sensitive nor specific enough to be clinically useful in anesthetized patients with mechanical ventilation. The fixed curve pattern of the interatrial septum was the best predictor of raised PCWP.

Abstract
Perioperative care for cardiac surgery is undergoing rapid evolution. Many of the changes involve the application of novel technologies to tackle common challenges in optimizing perioperative management. Herein, we illustrate recent advances in perioperative management by focusing on a number of novel components that we judge to be particularly important. These include: the introduction of brain and somatic oximetry; transesophageal echocardiographic hemodynamic monitoring and bedside focused ultrasound; ultrasound-guided vascular access; point-of-care coagulation surveillance; right ventricular pressure monitoring; novel inhaled treatment for right ventricular failure; new approaches for postoperative pain management; novel approaches in specialized care procedures to ensure quality control; and specific approaches to optimize the management for postoperative cardiac arrest. Herein, we discuss the reasons that each of these components are particularly important in improving perioperative care, describe how they can be addressed, and their impact in the care of patients who undergo cardiac surgery.
